Read our by-laws

     The Dunning PTO is a very busy group. In addition to running fundraisers and publishing the monthly newsletter, "The Bear Facts", the PTO organizes special events such as Bingo for Books, Family Fun Night,  our bi-annual "Spring Thing" Auction (a fun evening out for adults) and community service projects, including our annual Coat Drive.

     The PTO meets on the first Wednesday of certain months in the school cafeteria from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. Please visit the PTO Meetings page for the dates of our PTO meetings.  Babysitting for children 3 years and older is available in the school library.  All Dunning adults – parents, guardians, teachers and staff – are always welcomed and encouraged to join the fun by attending PTO meetings and participating in our special events and fundraisers.

     Forms related to PTO activities can be found in the PTO Forms page.  From PTO Forms, you can subscribe to the electronic version of the monthly school newsletter and update or add your contact information for the Dunning PTO School Directory that is published in the fall every year as well as find the forms to sign up for many other PTO volunteer opportunities.  Please visit the PTO Forms page for more important information.

     The PTO is a great way to meet other members of the Dunning community while supporting all of our students. To stay informed about everything that is happening with the PTO, sign up to receive PTO updates by joining the DunningPTO Google Group.  Typically an e-mail will be sent out monthly.  If there is something urgent or a last minute change to PTO plans, we will use the DunningPTO list to contact the Dunning community so please sign up to stay informed.

     For more information on events and volunteer opportunities, please email Moira LaPointe, PTO President.
